Hello David, thank you for the link. I am trying to figure out how I can provide my client's a "sure" way of being specific to being HIPAA compliant when it comes to technology/IT.

The whole things seems very vague and a lot of miss information. For example, I have a dentist in the area that will not fax me an invoice for my son because of HIPAA compliance. That is their policy and they are sticking to it. I don't believe faxing a document is an issue. I do respect the dentist and it is his decision to keep that policy or not. However, it makes me wonder if I should advise my clients in faxing is NOT HIPAA compliant.

Note the front desk lady at the dentist office will use the excuse of HIPAA but I am pretty sure this is not the case. Then again, I want to be sure what I am recommending to my clients is accurate and true.

In addition, as and EXAMPLE, I want to keep out of any liability issues. If I tell my clients it is ok to fax, and they do and get in trouble because of it I don't want to be held liable.

Bottom line is that I want to be educated in HIPAA to know what I am saying is correct and that I can provide recommendations to my clients and warn them of risks.

Again, I appreciate your link but it does not completely address what I have asked.
